Hudson Valley Premiere Of FUN HOME Opens At The Center For Performing Arts At Rhinebeck
by BWW News Desk - June 14, 2018
Rhinebeck Theatre Society (RTS) announces the regional premiere of the musical FUN HOME. Winner of the 2015 Tony award for best musical, this innovative show reinvents the classic coming-of-age story. Based on Alison Bechdel's graphic memoir of the same title, the musical follows Alison's memories of her sexual awakening and her father's suicide. A 2015 report from the New York State LGBT Health and Human Services Network shows that LGBTQ people in the Hudson Valley also deal with limited or poor media representation, family estrangement, limited access to affirming healthcare, and severe social isolation. Fun Home's honest representation of LGBTQ narratives will be particularly impactful with a cast of nine local actors, many of whom identify as LGBTQ, especially for specially invited audiences of local high school Gay-Straight Alliances.
